In Visual Studio Code supposed to replace/override an existing file tab? When I click package.json with nothing on the editor, it opens package.json . When I click on README.md it replaced the package.json file with the README. See GIF link below for a visual picture.
Note that these happen after I click the file
To open the Settings editor, use the following VS Code menu command: On Windows/Linux - File > Preferences > Settings. On macOS - Code > Preferences > Settings.
To toggle overtype mode, press the Insert key. If you don't have an Insert key, you can press Ctrl+Shift+I (on Windows and Linux) or Cmd+Shift+I (on Mac).
Hold down the Ctrl key and press Tab repeatedly until you select the file you intend to switch to.
Yes, that's a feature called Preview Mode. It provides a way to quickly review files without collapsing your editor with open files. You can tell the file is in preview mode by the italics on the tab.
You can pin the file by double-clicking on the tab (italics go away) or disable the feature altogether:
workbench.editor.enablePreview
to globally enable or disable preview editorsworkbench.editor.enablePreviewFromQuickOpen
to enable or disable preview editors when opened from Quick Open
